Abstract

Somatic musical exposure system for a person in recumbent position. The person lies on substantially rigid and laminar supporting means (12, 42, 72) above an air chamber (31, 61) of a sound housing (30, 60') with means (38a, b, c, d; 68a, b, c) providing it with music-emanating upward via the air chamber to the person so supported. The person-supporting means is itself mounted via resilient decoupling means (14, 44, 74) to a fixed frame (20, 60), which also supports the sound housing. The system may be either unitary (10) or modular (40) in form.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] Physical music irradiation system Ritsuka Keishi The present invention relates to an apparatus and method that allows a lying listener to listen to music not only by hearing but also by touch. It relates to devices and methods for irradiating physical experience.

Huangdong Ayu Music has long been recognized as something that soothes the soul and is pleasing to the ears. Many Many people believe that they can work or study better in a musical environment, and that some forms of music can be relaxing. I believed I could get rid of it. Many modern developments in sound generation and reproduction equipment have accelerated and facilitated the enjoyment of music. Made it easy. Music, like dance, inspires physical ability and is a great tool for individual and group training. Commonly associated with grams.

Physical improvement can be enhanced by various types of training, but when such training is impractical, 9 If it is not distributed throughout the body or if it is excessive, passive training, pine surge, etc. may be advantageous. On the one hand, during repetitive training and pine surge exercises, and on the other hand, during various mechanical exercises. requires numerous mechanized beds, chairs, and tables. Music also has repetitive characteristics. It is self-evident that music is commonly used as an active-passive training device.

Efforts have been made to make musical acoustic vibrations affect not only the ears but also the body. No Mura U.S. Patent No. 3,880,152 No. 4,055,170 Multimas U.S. Patent No. No. 4,023,566 discloses a seated or reclined device that directs the loudspeaker toward the person's back. death However, this system is an overly loose bond to the supported person and has no effect on Other inventors have used liquid media to transmit various vibrations to the body, but this model The stem is too tightly coupled and not suitable.

The bodily music illumination system according to the invention overcomes the shortcomings of known devices and takes it to a new level. It provides physical comfort and passive training, resulting in many benefits for the irradiated person.

lyu king plate jo Generally speaking, in order to achieve the objects of the present invention, a housing defining an open top air chamber is provided. means for providing music to the housing means; and means for supporting a recumbent person above the chamber. means for holding the chamber, thereby physically irradiating it with the music emanating from the chamber.
